Abigale “Abi” Hamlin was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia last spring.  After enduring chemotherapy and other treatment at Children’s Hospital in Seattle, Abi returned to River View for her senior year in September of last year.

Through hard work, she was even able to earn a spot on the Varsity Basketball team.  Near the end of the season, it was learned that Abi’s leukemia had returned.

Abi is currently undergoing treatment once again at Children’s Hospital.

The Deputies from Benton County have joined forces with the Finley Booster Club to help raise funds to support Abi and her family as her battle against Leukemia continues.

The Golf  FORE  Abi II tournament will be held at the above time and location.  It will be a four-person team, best ball scramble tournament where players are encouraged to wear orange to signify the fight against Leukemia.

The cost to play is $80 per player which includes green fees, range balls, a sleeve of custom balls for the first 25 teams, and raffle prizes.  Benevolent companies, groups or individuals can sponsor a hole for $150.

Signs advertising donors will be displayed on tee boxes.  New items or gift certificates are being accepted as raffle prizes.  For more information, please contact Joe Lusignan at 509-947-7078 or email at jlusignan@frontier.com
